Excellent service, nothing is too much trouble. My roof has unusual profile tiles which are not readily available but Lewis didn't give up, he kept on looking until he found tiles that matched exactly. Thank you for your excellent friendly helpful service. John Lingwood

I have always been promptly and well serviced by the company. You can rest assured that the job being performed by them is being done professionally and any issues will be promptly resolved. I have had my fair share of experiences with cowboy builders but Essex Roofing is not one of them and they have always been super professional and I am happy to recommend them time and time again.
